Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sterilizer technology, and specifically to a knife sterilizer. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most knives on the market consist of a metal blade and a wooden handle. After use, knives are cleaned, but the wet blades allow water to seep into the wood. Over time, this can cause mold and bacteria to grow, posing a potential health hazard. Therefore, knife sterilizers have emerged as a solution.

[0003] Utility model patent CN201384716Y discloses a knife sterilizer, including a knife holder body for holding knives. The knife holder body includes a shell and several slots on the shell for inserting knives into the shell. An ultraviolet lamp and a heater are installed inside the shell, and the ultraviolet lamp and heater are electrically connected to an external power source. This knife sterilizer can not only hold knives but also sterilize them. Furthermore, due to the heater, it has a micro-heating function, which can effectively dry the moisture on the knives and keep them dry. However, during use, this knife sterilizer can only sterilize and dry the blade, while the handle is exposed, making it impossible to sterilize and dry the handle.

[0004] Therefore, there is still room for improvement in the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problem that existing technologies can only disinfect and dry the blade but not the handle, this invention provides a knife sterilizer.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution applied in this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A knife sterilizer includes a housing with an internal cavity for accommodating knives; and a power supply box detachably mounted on the housing, the power supply box containing a hot air mechanism connected to the internal cavity via an air duct. This configuration allows for the sterilization and drying of the entire knife by placing it within the internal cavity and then delivering hot air generated by the hot air mechanism into the internal cavity via the air duct.

[0008] According to the above scheme, a flap is hinged to the opening of the inner cavity. The flap is used to open or close the inner cavity, and a sealing assembly is provided between the flap and the opening of the inner cavity. This design facilitates the installation and removal of the cutting tool.

[0009] According to the above scheme, a tool holder is detachably installed in the inner cavity, dividing the inner cavity into cavity one and cavity two. After the tool is assembled on the tool holder, the blade is located in cavity one, and the handle is located in cavity two. Cavity one has a through hole one communicating with the air duct, and cavity two has a through hole two communicating with the air duct. In this configuration, the inner cavity is divided into two cavities, cavity one and cavity two, by the tool holder. When the tool is assembled on the tool holder, its blade is located in cavity one, and its handle is located in cavity two. The hot air generated when the hot air mechanism is working is delivered to cavity one and cavity two respectively through the air duct, thereby achieving disinfection, sterilization, and drying of the blade and handle.

[0010] According to the above scheme, the air duct includes air duct one and air duct two located within the power supply box. The air inlets of air duct one and air duct two are both connected to the hot air assembly, and the air outlets of air duct one and air duct two are respectively connected to through hole one and through hole two. With this configuration, by providing two air ducts (air duct one and air duct two) within the power supply box, the hot air generated during the operation of the hot air mechanism can be delivered to cavity one and cavity two respectively through air duct one and air duct two, thereby achieving disinfection and drying of the blade and handle of the cutting tool.

[0011] According to the above scheme, the air outlet of the first air duct is provided with an air duct opening one that communicates with the through hole one, and the air outlet of the second air duct is provided with an air duct opening two that communicates with the through hole two. With this arrangement, when the power supply box is assembled on the housing, the air duct opening one of the first air duct is aligned and connected with the through hole one, and the air duct opening two of the second air duct is aligned and connected with the through hole two, thereby realizing the delivery of hot air.

[0012] According to the above scheme, the hot air mechanism includes a heating element and a fan assembly. The heating element is installed inside the air outlet of the fan assembly, and the air outlet of the fan assembly is connected to the air duct. With this configuration, the airflow generated by the fan assembly during operation is heated by the heating element to form hot air, which is then transported to the inner cavity through the air duct.

[0013] According to the above scheme, the power supply box contains a control board power supply assembly, which is electrically connected to the hot air mechanism; the power supply box also has a control switch, which is electrically connected to the control board power supply assembly. This configuration facilitates operation.

[0014] According to the above design, the housing is provided with a guide slot that mates with the power supply box, and a limiting component is provided between the power supply box and the guide slot. This design facilitates quick assembly and disassembly of the power supply box.

[0015] According to the above solution, the limiting component includes an elastic protrusion on the power supply box and a limiting groove in the guide slot, with the elastic protrusion and the limiting groove engaging in a locking manner. With this configuration, when the power supply box is assembled onto the housing, the power supply box will not detach from the housing by itself due to the engaging action of the elastic protrusion and the limiting groove.

[0016] According to the above scheme, the upper surface of the elastic rib is an arc-shaped surface. This design facilitates the drawer-like assembly and disassembly of the power box relative to the guide slot under the action of force. Specifically, when the power box is pushed into the guide slot for assembly, the upper surface of the elastic rib abuts against the opening of the guide slot. Under the action of force, the opening of the guide slot compresses the elastic rib, causing it to deform. When the elastic rib aligns with the limiting groove, the elastic rib resets and is locked in the limiting groove. Similarly, when the power box is pulled out of the guide slot for disassembly, the elastic rib is dislodged from the limiting groove under the action of force.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] This invention is designed such that the cutting tool is placed in the inner cavity, and the hot air generated by the hot air mechanism is transported to the inner cavity through the air duct to achieve disinfection, sterilization and drying of the entire cutting tool.

[0028] The technical solution of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the knife sterilizer of this utility model includes a housing 1, with an inner cavity formed inside the housing 1 for accommodating knives; and a power supply box 4, which is detachably installed on the housing 1. The power supply box 4 is equipped with a hot air mechanism, which is connected to the inner cavity through an air duct. This configuration allows the knife 5 to be placed entirely within the inner cavity, and the hot air generated by the hot air mechanism during operation is delivered to the inner cavity through the air duct, thereby achieving sterilization, disinfection, and drying of the entire knife 5.

[0030] The power box 4 is detachably installed on the housing 1, so that the housing 1 can be immersed in water for cleaning after the power box 4 is removed; the power box 4 is provided with a handle.

[0031] Furthermore, a flap 3 is hinged to the opening of the inner cavity. The flap 3 is used to open or close the inner cavity, and a sealing assembly is provided between the flap 3 and the opening of the inner cavity. This arrangement facilitates the installation and removal of the tool 5.

[0032] A sealing component is provided between the flip cover 3 and the inner cavity opening. When the flip cover 3 is closed, the inner cavity is sealed, resulting in better disinfection, sterilization, and drying effects. A handle is provided on the outer wall of the flip cover 3. The sealing component is a sealing ring.

[0033] Furthermore, a detachable blade holder 2 is installed in the inner cavity, dividing the inner cavity into cavity one 11 and cavity two 12. After the blade 5 is assembled on the blade holder 2, the blade body of the blade 5 is located in cavity one 11, and the handle of the blade 5 is located in cavity two 12. Cavity one 11 has a through hole one 13 communicating with the air duct, and cavity two 12 has a through hole two 14 communicating with the air duct. In this configuration, the inner cavity is divided into two cavities, cavity one 11 and cavity two 12, by the blade holder 2. When the blade 5 is assembled on the blade holder 2, its blade body is located in cavity one 11, and its handle is located in cavity two 12. The hot air generated when the hot air mechanism is working is delivered to cavity one 11 and cavity two 12 through the air duct, respectively, to disinfect, sterilize, and dry the blade body and handle of the blade 5.

[0034] The knife holder 2 is detachably installed in the inner cavity, making assembly convenient. The knife holder 2 is provided with multiple locking holes for engaging the blades of different knives 5 (such as kitchen knives, fruit knives, scissors, etc.), facilitating the installation and removal of the knives 5.

[0035] Furthermore, the air ducts include air duct 46 and air duct 47 located within the power supply box 4. The air inlets of both air duct 46 and air duct 47 are connected to the hot air assembly, and the air outlets of air duct 46 and air duct 47 are connected to through hole 13 and through hole 14, respectively. This arrangement, with two air ducts (air duct 46 and air duct 47) within the power supply box 4, allows the hot air generated during the operation of the hot air mechanism to be delivered to cavity 11 and cavity 12, respectively, through air duct 46 and air duct 47, thereby disinfecting and drying the blade and handle of the cutting tool 5, resulting in better performance.

[0036] Furthermore, the air outlet of the first air duct 46 is provided with an air duct opening 41 that communicates with the through hole 13, and the air outlet of the second air duct 47 is provided with an air duct opening 42 that communicates with the through hole 14. With this arrangement, when the power supply box 4 is assembled on the housing 1, the air duct opening 41 of the first air duct 46 is aligned and communicates with the through hole 13, and the air duct opening 42 of the second air duct 47 is aligned and communicates with the through hole 14, thereby realizing the delivery of hot air.

[0037] Furthermore, the hot air mechanism includes a heating element 43 and a fan assembly 44. The heating element 43 is installed inside the air outlet of the fan assembly 44, and the air outlet of the fan assembly 44 is connected to the air duct. With this configuration, the airflow generated when the fan assembly 44 is working is heated by the heating element 43 to form hot air, which is then transported to the inner cavity through the air duct.

[0038] Furthermore, the power supply box 4 contains a control board power assembly 45, which is electrically connected to the hot air mechanism; the power supply box 4 also has a control switch 48, which is electrically connected to the control board power assembly 45. This configuration facilitates operation.

[0039] Furthermore, the housing 1 is provided with a guide slot 15 that mates with the power supply box 4, and a limiting component is provided between the power supply box 4 and the guide slot 15. This arrangement facilitates the correct and quick assembly and disassembly of the power supply box 4.

[0040] Furthermore, the limiting component includes an elastic protrusion 49 on the power supply box 4 and a limiting groove in the guide slot 15, with the elastic protrusion 49 engaging with the limiting groove. With this configuration, when the power supply box 4 is assembled onto the housing 1, the engagement of the elastic protrusion 49 and the limiting groove prevents the power supply box 4 from detaching from the housing 1.

[0041] Furthermore, the upper surface of the elastic rib 49 is arc-shaped. This design facilitates the drawer-like assembly and disassembly of the power box 4 relative to the guide slot 15 under the action of force. Specifically, when the power box 4 is pushed into the guide slot 15 for assembly, the upper surface of the elastic rib 49 abuts against the opening of the guide slot 15. Under the action of force, the opening of the guide slot 15 compresses the elastic rib 49, causing it to deform. When the elastic rib 49 aligns with the limiting groove, it resets and locks into the limiting groove. Similarly, when the power box 4 is pulled out of the guide slot 15 for disassembly, the elastic rib 49 disengages from the limiting groove under the action of force.

[0042] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of the present utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
